Please Note:
To create an effective mitigation for CVE-2024-1737 we have introduced two new
configurable limits that prevent the loading (into zones or into cache) of DNS
resource records (RRs) that exceed them. We therefore recommend reading this KB
article,
https://kb.isc.org/docs/rrset-limits-in-zones, in case you need to change the
defaults to suit your specific operational environment.
We recommend that users planning to upgrade from the EOL 9.16 branch read the
following document first:
https://kb.isc.org/docs/changes-to-be-aware-of-when-moving-from-bind-916-to-918
